I do not agree with the author's views. War can be fought with war? A brick for a brick .....and the whole world becomes blind.
"Declaring war on terrorists" is not as easy as it sounds. "Displaying your power" is not about "missiles" and "tanks" and "guns". Should we be so afraid that terrorists would use out Rights, our freedoms, to attack us that we restrict those rights for our own people? Gouge out my own eyes, scratch out my own nose to spite my face?
The solution is not WAR.
THE SOLUTION IS NOT A ONE LINER.
It is much more complex and much more diffucult. It involves building bridges between people,communities and nations. It involves developing structures - social, moral,legal, economic, that will protect us from the antisocial, from the immoral, from the illegal, from the anti-economic.
So that when the times comes to fight, we wont have to: There will be no enemy.

Myshkin, plz go to the Himalayas & meditate for world peace. You sound like a perfect idiot who believes in going to the Paki border with lighted candles & holding them close to your heart.
